Dye plants have been my passion for many years. I first started learning to spin wool in 1977. I started raising angora rabbits, Samoyed dogs, and llamas to support my habit. Then I started exploring natural plants to provide some subtle variations in color. I only dye with what I can grow or sustainably wildcraft (I’m not using insects, for example). Above are the plants that we’ll have this year, weather and other factors pending. I will probably also be growing the Amaranth, Hopi Red Dye again, which has worked well for me in years past. Check back on these pages as to availability as the season progresses!
